Hi community,

Copy and paste commands don't work in illustrator. On some objects/texts they work, while on others they don't.

What does not work? When you paste it?

There's a whole list of apps that can interfere with Illustrator's clipboard

Hello @Marco35051931mseg,

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing more details, like the OS/Illustrator version, so I can better assist you? Also, check if you have any plugins/window managers enabled, and temporarily disabling them to see if it helps.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
